We'll have a total of 6 to bring- plus any more we make- but I have a feeling the balls are going to be totally demolished by the time they get to the competition. They do not hold up to impacts, they break on a simple drop- I can't imagine what they'll look like after they're thrown in much less compressed into the wall between robots.

Sorry, I still feel FIRST should have changed to NERF for this competition and said "screw it".

Holy moly! Shipping 3 of those balls to Hawaii will cost $41 2nd day air and $34 ground. So the total cost of buying 3 balls and shipping 2nd day air is over 71 dollars! THAT'S an expensive game piece man.
